Gas Prices
Am I the only person who finds it weird that the cheapest and the most expensive gas stations in Ellicott City (that I am aware of, at least) are right across the street from each other? On the northwest corner of the intersection, you have the Sunoco, with regular gas for $1.689. On the southeast corner, there's the Exxon with regular gas for $1.789. All the other gas stations along my route to work are about $1.749. How is it that the two extremes are almost at the end of 40 (before it turns into I-70) and right across the street from each other? I just don't get it.
If you can't tell already, I'm in an odd mood today. :)

Hello, I am writing a story on rising gas prices in Maryland and Howard County. I came across your Web site and thought you might be someone that could comment on these prices near the $2 mark. I can be reached at 410-730-3990 Ext. 1260. My deadline is Thursday. Sincerely, Katie Arcieri, reporter Howard County Times

Boy, any driver in the UK would love to pay those sorts of prices. You'd expect to pay at least $5 here...
